The Boss (Noah Model)

How do you get a performance shortboard when you are a normal larger surfer 185 lbs or more? Most shortboarders ride thin boards that are super chippy that sink them up to the top of their chest. The Boss gives bigger guys a solid performance shortboard option.

Neilson Surfboards : The Boss

This board fills that gap by creating a board that is not super boaty and thick but is not a super chip. It is based on the same profile and bottom concaves as my team riders have but just a thicker version. Usually you get this in epoxy to give you that extra 15% float versus a normal poly board. These boards go vertical, make late take offs and travel well to any waves in the world and still charge in overhead powerful waves. This is the board for the surfer who is in shape but wants a real board for real surfing and still have decent float and paddle power. This model has been proven to work in good surf here in Florida and all over the world. Normally ridden as a thruster.
